i didn't refer to any specific feature, but stuff like airdrop, the airtag system, sharing files between apple devices.

never actually used any apple product besides the 2nd gen ipod touch, but i've been told they're pretty rad.

also i'm never gonna buy any of that overpriced, planned obsolescence bullshit. not for 800+€

airdrop

sharing files between apple devices

Uh, what about syncthing? Syncthing is literally better than anything apple has ever pumped out in the name of file sharing, because it is multi-platform and does it in essentially real time (configurable).

Airdrop is borderline pointless too, it does pretty much the same thing as any messenger worth a damn when it comes to filesharing but has a much lower limit than most of them, both in filesize and filetype.
